A former confidence man and master impostor recounts his crimes, captures, escapes, and imprisonment, in a firsthand account of his international exploits.

The Amazing True Story of the Youngest and Most Daring Con Man in the History of Fun and Profit

Catch Me If You Can

The world's most sought-after con man wrote $2.5 million in bad checks, practiced law without a license, practiced medicine with no medical training, and co-piloted a Pan Am jet with a fake license. Slated for production at DreamWorks Entertainment, and now updated with a new Afterworld, "Catch Me If You Can" contains all of the elements of the most wildly imaginative fiction, except that Abagnale's exploits actually happened.

Wow! Such an engrossing book that I knocked off in about 24 hours. A well written true account of his criminal exploits as a young man, posing as a pilot, lawyer, paediatrician among other things. Even though he was a crook, I found myself on his side, loving his ever more daring exploits. A most enjoyable read!

Still can't believe how Frank was able to pull off these cons but it is so fun to read about. 
Frank is literally the definition of "fake it till you make it" - the fact he so casually and confidently was able to tell lies like how he's a Pan Am pilot, pediatrician, law student, etc is insane. Also, the way he finessed the checking/bank system -- wild.

Frank Abagnale was one of the most daring con men, forgers, impostors, and escape artists in history.
